But that won't give the DOF effects of 35mm or the high ISO for candle

film, and it's still a lot more compact.

DOF effects are completely unrelated to the size of the sensor...
Get the correct lens and you get the correct DOF effect, for any
format.
As for high ISO for candle-lit scenes, watch Stanley Kubrick's Barry
Lyndon: shot on "dirty" low iso film, candle lit, 38 years ago. Of
course they used the frankencamera...

Assuming Canon junkies are capable of watching Barry Lyndon, brace
yourself for the inevitable "Oooh! They must have filmed that using L
lenses..."
